That doesn't work. I think you entered your ebay ID as an item number, in that link. This is what you meant?

It's the "Canadian curse" I often am plagued by, all the good stuff in USA, many sellers not willing to ship to Canada EVEN though I am willing to pay the extra shipping cost.

Get used to it.

How is the shipping situation in Canada? I know people were afraid to ship there due to the postal strike but I haven't heard anything about it in awhile.

They were ordered back to work last month, concentrating on back log and I think pretty much back to normal. I've had no issues personally.

I'm certainly used to it, I've been buying on Ebay since '98.

It is a curse sometimes to be sure, but it's also unfortunate for the sellers, many of them don't realize how much money they are losing by excluding Canadian buyers.
There are a lot of buyers up here that can only add to the pockets of these sellers.

In fact, that is one of the main reasons I was involved in launching www.cgcc.ca years ago.

Great site. Even though I don't post very often I visit the site almost daily.

Yes, its rough seeing something and finding it US only. As a coco collector, it seems a large percentage are US only, perhaps because they're large items. I don't know, but it sure is frustrating.

EDIT - all the items get pulled? I don't see anything for sale. I was curious even though I can't bid anyway :P

It is, though I don't really frequent there anymore, and have had no involvement with the site for quite some time.
It's achieved a lot of what I envisioned, but still lots more I'd like to have seen come of it.
Great though to see how the community has endured and how the site is still going strong after all these years.
